Hi SUEBEAR69 and welcome!
Sony will not be supporting your Vaio for Windows 10 due to its age but I would expect most of the Windows 8 drivers to work OK.
The SFEP Driver and the SFEP Driver sustaining Patch for Windows Vista are on the Sony Support Website for your model and I think these will work for any 32-bit operating system.

SFEP Sustaining Patch

If these do not work we will need to look for an updated SFEP Driver from another Vaio Model but most of these are for a 64-bit Microsoft Operating System. I presume you have installed Windows 10 32-bit?
Try the ones above first and if they do not work, or if you have 64-bit Windows 10, come back and we will try something else.
Hi Sue,
We're looking into this for you now, and we'll be back in touch with a response as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Owen
